So Fancy

Linking up with The Red Closet Diary and Twenties Girl Style | #WIWT Linkup

Hey my friends!

Have you ever gotten a piece that makes you feel like a million bucks? 

Whenever I put this faux fur vest on, I feel like I have a million bucks. For real. Can a vest be considered a power suit? 

I've actually been wanting a vest like this for awhile, so when I found it at my beloved Burlington Coat Factory I was pretty excited. It's so perfect for Georgia winters where one day can go from 60 degrees to 32 degrees in a few hours.

FYI y'all. The hubs shot this look. He's come such a long way! I'm super grateful for a hubby that is willing to grow along with this little style blog I call mine.

Tell me about the things that make you feel oh so fancy! I love hearing from you!

Quiet Valentine

Hey my friends!

Happy almost Valentine's Day!

I hope you all have some fun things planned for the day whether it be extravagant and posh or simple and quiet. The hubs and I are going to keep up our tradition of having a pretty quiet day. We'll head to church in the morning, make ourselves a yummy Whole30 dinner, and then snuggle up for the Walking Dead Midseason premiere. (Super romantic! Anyone else watching? I'll be live tweeting :-P)

This outfit is perfect for the day I have planned. Simple sweet with some statement pieces added. I've linked to some similar pieces below!

Clearance Gem

Hey my friends!

Let me introduce you to my new favorite top! I found it tucked away in the clearance section a couple months ago at Burlington Coat Factory. It's super fun and I can't resist twirling once or twice while I'm wearing it!
One of the things that I love about shopping clearance is not just the great deals you can find but also the unique pieces people avoid because they are too "out there" to try. To be honest, when I picked this up I wasn't sure that it would work. Thankfully, my mom convinced me to try it on. I'm so grateful for her! This is why you should always try something on before crossing it off your list.
Do y'all have any tips on shopping clearance? I love hearing from you!

The Joys of Shopping Local

Hey my friends!

This past weekend my church hosted an artist market for local craftsmen to come and sell their wares. It was so fun and the hubs and I went a little wild. (Ooops) We just love the fact that we were supporting people in our own community while getting gorgeous and unique artwork. Like this necklace! I bought it premade because it fits my personality so well (I love being married), but Stamped and Finch are able to customize the bar to say whatever you want! I'm pretty sure I sent at least 5 people there after my purchase, I highly recommend them.

I also got this clutch which I plan to wear at my company's holiday party this weekend. It's adorable but it also has such a great story behind it. The organization Peace of Thread employs refugee women to make beautiful one of a kind bags and helps them to start a new life. Each one even includes a card about the woman who made it and a bit of her story. I cannot express how much I love this. Doing good always feels good and when you throw in fashion, I can't get enough! And they're based literally in my backyard! Are there any organizations that inspire you? I would love to hear about it, especially during this time of year!

I would talk about my outfit but I feel like I've said enough. Just one last thing: This Old Navy dress is so cheap and comfortable! You need one. Link below!

Jump Around

Hey my friends!

I'm back!!! I never thought 2 weeks without internet could be so torturous, but I have been dying to share this look with you. 

I've been searching for a jumpsuit for a while now, it's been that elusive piece that looks great on everyone but me. You know what I mean? I had all about given up on finding one when I ran across this beauty at Burlington Coat Factory. I fell in love. It fits me so well and feels like PJs. Win. Double win. Plus, I always get compliments when I wear it. Triple win. So I guess this is a lesson in perserverence my friends. Never give up. Your next fab piece might be waiting for you where you least expect it.

Here, There, Everywhere

Hey my friends!

I don't know if you know this about me or not but I love to travel. Seriously. On my way home from a getaway, I'm planning the next one. Thankfully, I have lots of fun trips planned for the summer so the wanderlust is somewhat satiated. 

I think I'm going to love traveling in this fringe-y cardigan. It's that perfect mix between not too hot and not too cold that keeps one comfortable on a frigid plane or a windy day. I'm sure I could also make it work over a swimsuit!

Have a happy Tuesday and do something that makes you smile.

Tuesday Blues

Hey my friends!

I hope this week is finding you well! My week is starting off pretty hectic/stressful but by the end I'll be sipping on something cold with my toes in the sand. I wish every week could end like that!

Normally when I have a hectic day at work, I take some time to browse through the closest mall on my lunch break. That can be both a good and a bad thing. Bad for my bank account but good for my soul. Retail therapy is a thing, friends. It was on such a trip that I found these shoes. It definitely made my day a little brighter to bring these babies home with me! 

Is there any you do when stressed? When I'm not near a mall I love to crank up some music and dance like crazy. Try not smiling while you do that. Impossible.
